With the exception of the top four, that's a wild list!

You could really tell they wanted to put GATS much higher, giving it the false narrative that it was an over maligned album vindicated by time. Probably has the joint best set of singles with EMG but so much of the album is filler. Progenitor of other albums released for the sake of a release schedule and bank accounts like PFAYM and RiF.

Well it's a lot better than I was expecting. I'd put JFPL and Lifeblood higher than EMG and KYE and swap a few here and there, but overall it's in the ball park of my own preference.

I find it really hard to rank them. Although GT, GATS and SATT will be perennially near the bottom.

I can agree with them that Walkers are shite. Only tolerable ones are Sensations Thai Sweet Chilli. All others can get in the bin.

The Independent have cribbed a recent interview which they've centered around a Richey angle.
And that out of date release too!
Why The Independent couldn't have just asked the band instead of cribbing. But that's probably The Independent's current online journalism.
If that is how it is could do it by self and sell that soul oh sorry here's link goodnight meds took.
